Overview

EXPERIENCE WITH TAUCK

 

Enjoy a Tauck-exclusive early-opening visit to Denmark's magnificent Frederiksborg Palace, exploring its grand halls and royal gardens before the day's public crowds arrive. Set amid lakefront grounds north of Copenhagen, the Renaissance castle offers a quieter look at one of Scandinavia's most remarkable royal residences, with time to appreciate its architecture, history, and formal gardens in relative calm.

Surround yourself with the natural beauty of Norway's Geirangerfjord aboard a ferry cruise on its deep blue waters, where steep green cliffs and cascading waterfalls rise dramatically on either side. Surrounded by towering peaks and remote mountain farms clinging to the hillsides above, this UNESCO World Heritage Site reveals the striking scale and quiet grandeur of western Norway's fjord country.

Explore Oslo's rich cultural heritage during guided visits to the Norsk Folkemuseum and the iconic Gol Stave Church, dating to the 1200s. One of Norway's best-preserved medieval wooden churches, Gol Stave Church reflects centuries of craftsmanship and tradition, while the open-air museum offers insight into Norwegian daily life through historic buildings, folk art, and exhibits spanning the country's rural and urban past.

An evening visit to the Vasa Museum

An evening visit to the Vasa Museum

One of the world's mightiest vessels when built for Sweden's celebrated royal fleet in 1628, the ornate warship Vasa infamously sank to the bottom of Stockholm Harbor immediately upon its launch. Finally raised after more than three centuries in 1961, the well-preserved ship is now the centerpiece of the most-visited museum in Scandinavia. Enjoy a visit to the Vasa followed by a reception and dinner at a local restaurant in Stockholm.

Early entry to Denmark's Frederiksborg Palace

Enjoy a private, early-entry visit to Frederiksborg Palace

Dating to the early 1600s as a royal residence for the King of Denmark and Norway, Frederiksborg Castle – built atop three islands in a lake near Copenhagen – has been through many trials, tribulations and changes over the centuries. Following a disastrous fire in the mid-19th century, this Danish Renaissance masterpiece was reconstructed and restored according to its original plans and drawings. Today, it's the Danish Museum of National History… and you're invited to discover its grandeur on a private, early-entry visit.

Oh my gosh, another perfect Tauck trip. The activities, sights and hotels were first rate – I love that Tauck chooses hotels in the middle of cities where one can walk to so many sites.
